I'm looking to buy a used car. I had my eye on a 2005 Ford Focus with 126,000 miles because I drive an hour to work and thought it would get good gas mileage. The downside to this is that the car is a 2 door hatchback and I do have 2 teenage sons so it would not be easy for all of us to fit, however I do still have a larger sedan. My dad has come come across a 2000 Nissan Maxima, which had 130,000 miles. It would certainly have more room. The downside is that the radio doesn't work, but the seller has agreed to repair or put in a new one if I want the car. The asking price for both cars is the same $3500. Which one would you buy?
What would win in a race a Ford Focus or Chrysler 300m?
So my ford focus 2001 zx3 2.0 DOHC started to have some wobbling noise coming from the rear left side, which seems to be a bad wheel bearing. Since replacing just the bearing its a pain in the ***, I was going to get the drum with the bearing already pressed. When replacing a rear drum, do I have to put a new Centric Spindle Nut/Disc or use the old one? What about the spindle stub shaft? I would really appreciate your help
I have a 2001 1.4 automatic ford focus (UK) It has been struggling with accelerating and i have been told its a pipe that has a hole in it. Its apparently a common fault on Fords and its where they "suck in and eventually just collapse on themselves" If i was going to order this part, what is it called? Is it a breather hose? If you are looking at the engine you can see it just underneath at the front.
I have a 2006 Ford Focus whose radio (CD 600) is asking for a code after getting a new battery. I don't want to deal with Ford here. Is there an easy way to do this?
It was a minor accident in which my bumper of my car has been destroyed. My daughter (2.5 years old) and I experienced minor whiplash. I missed 1 week of work due to having a sore neck in which I get approximately $1500 per week. I saw a doctor for the neck pain and was given painkillers and muscle relaxers to ease the soreness. I don't have pain anymore, but do not know the long term effects of this type of injury. The insurance company of the driver called and told me they will make a settlement offer once the car is inspected. Based on this information… How much should I expect to be paid? The car damage is only the back bumper of a ford focus which is caved in.
Is there any upgrades to hp I can make with a 2014 ford focus SE?
I can get my license in a few weeks, and my dad and I are looking for a car for me. We have found 2 cars from a reliable used car dealership in my area and are going to see/test drive them tomorrow.
One is a 2006 Gray Hyundai Sonata LX with about 147,000 miles on it for $4999 and the other is a 2008 Silver Ford Focus SES with about 138,000 miles on it for $5999, but some of the buttons/controls in the interior are partially worn out. Both cars have sunroofs, and both prices are before all the added fees that come with purchasing a car such as 30 day license, etc.
I know the Sonata has a V6 engine and the Focus is only V4. I also know the Focus is smaller which I like due to the whole manueverability aspect of the driving test. However, my dad said if the people at the dealership won't come down on the price he's not sure if he's willing to pay over $6000 after all the added charges.
Which would you recommend for my first car? 2006 Sonata or 2008 Focus? Please include any experience you've had with either car, and your personal opinion.
I was watching an old episode of top gear where Jeremy drove the mondeo st220. To me the car looks like the front end of an American 2005-2007 focus and the rest of the body looks like and an American five hundred. Does anyone else see the resemblance?
